Watermelon Peperomia (Peperomia argyreia)
Native to South America, the Watermelon Peperomia is part of the diverse Peperomia family, which includes over 1,000 species. It gets its name from the striking resemblance of its leaves to mini watermelons—take a look at one and you’ll see why.
Like most plants at Leaf Culture, it’s easy to care for and doesn’t need much attention. It prefers bright, indirect light—never direct sun, as that can scorch the leaves.
When it comes to watering, give it a deep soak, ideally from the bottom up. Most plants benefit more from an occasional thorough watering than frequent light ones. A proper soak encourages stronger root growth, making for a healthier plant overall.
Quick heads-up: The leaves are quite delicate and can get marked easily during transit. These blemishes aren’t a sign of poor quality—just part of the journey from our greenhouse to your home. 🙂
